The only thing i wish lian li didn't have was their price tag on the higher end cases :p (not that I don't pay it anyway though)

No, the case supports m-atx and atx so it'll be fine, but inverted atx is just odd.

All black theme? That case doesn't have a side window so it's totally fucking pointless.

I hope you realize the window will have to be on the right side of the case. If you really are going to install one, just use something with a dark tint.

So, I'll give it anyway. And here's another one, stop thinking about how stuff looks inside your case and get a life.

Dude, chill out. Should he have dropped the f-bomb? Maybe, maybe not. However, this is an open forum and everyone is entitled to their opinion. You should always keep question #10 in mind!

I often leave anandtech open when away or doing other things so it shows me online. And I might go outside if it wasn't 10°F (with windchill it's like -10).

I didn't buy my case cause it has a window :rolleyes: I bought it for every other reason. I actually wish it didn't have one, but it looks alright (even though my parts don't match color...). It was $70 on newegg shell shocker so I bit since it was cheaper than the non-windowed version.

Your thread is dead. You're ignorantly choosing your parts (mainly based on their appearance it seems) so if you're gonna be stupid about this it's going to be difficult to help you. So go ahead and pick some random nice looking parts and build it. Install your window and be happy with your "all black theme".

i think im going to hold off on a video card for now and stick with my 360 for gaming... the msi had decent onboard graphics that will get me by until i decide i need a better card.
